below: Jun.23, 2010, view of front from Stanley Ave. as workers salvage aluminum siding; under the siding can be seen a cement block construction, so this structure couldn't have been significantly old, despite its rather traditional appearance.

above: same view, Jun.24, 2010. There had also been a wooden garage at the right rear of the lot, which was torn down a year or so ago.

above: same view, Jun.30, 2010 - the site is being cleared. Note the tree, which had stood along Stanley Ave. at the left, has been cut down and removed.*

below: a closer look as seen on Jun.23, 2010; this house had stood at the south-west corner of Stanley Ave. and the tiny, yet uniquely still two-way, Peer La.

above: same view, Jun.24, 2010.

above: same view, Jun.30, 2010 - the lot is levelled; the tree, seen earlier at the left, has been removed.
